Belgravia: Season 1 (2020) 75% EDIT “Although it has its moments, "Belgravia" has a musty feel, like a a yellowed doily taken out of drawer.” – New York Post Apr 9, 2020 Full Review Run: Season 1 (2020) 81% EDIT “You can feel the writers coming up with new ideas to keep Billy and Ruby together - Let's have them book a hotel room they can't afford! Let's have them shop for fancy clothing! - but it's pretty obvious that they don't have much in common anymore.” – New York Post Apr 2, 2020 Full Review Council of Dads: Season 1 (2020) 50% EDIT “Where's the conflict?” – New York Post Mar 24, 2020 Full Review The English Game: Season 1 (2020) 53% EDIT “The most finely drawn character is Alma... adhering to the social decorum of the times, in which a woman knows her place, she conveys her character's loneliness, disappointments and flashes of anger with very simple gestures.” – New York Post Mar 20, 2020 Full Review Hunters: Season 1 (2020) 65% 2/4 EDIT “The shifting tones and conflicting storytelling severely limit any chance for this series to thrill you, let alone keep your attention.” – New York Post Feb 21, 2020 Full Review Homeland: Season 8 (2020) 85% EDIT “The first three episodes are a bit clunky, with Carrie's familiar pattern of alienating nearly everyone she meets kicking in again - and then Episode 4 comes along and "Homeland" finds its groove.” – New York Post Feb 6, 2020 Full Review The Sinner: Season 3 (2020) 92% 3/4 EDIT “Much of the success of this season's story has to do with some smart casting.” – New York Post Jan 30, 2020 Full Review For Life: Season 1 (2020) 86% EDIT “Though some of the direction is overdone... [Nicholas] Pinnock's brooding intensity establishes him as a leading man to watch.” – New York Post Jan 23, 2020 Full Review Tommy: Season 1 (2020) 68% EDIT “The star's plain-spoken compassion for crime victims goes a long way to humanizing the basic CBS procedural.” – New York Post Jan 23, 2020 Full Review Outmatched: Season 1 (2020) 22% EDIT “In case you are not laughing, Fox has provided a lame laugh track to persuade viewers that some people might find any of this amusing.” – New York Post Jan 23, 2020 Full Review 9-1-1: Lone Star: Season 1 (2020) 77% EDIT “With his bronzed physique and chiseled chin, [Rob] Lowe looks like he's doing an infomercial, not playing a character.” – New York Post Jan 21, 2020 Full Review Awkwafina Is Nora From Queens: Season 1 (2020) 81% EDIT “Who is the target audience here? Perhaps the chronically unemployed.” – New York Post Jan 15, 2020 Full Review FBI: Most Wanted: Season 1 (2020) EDIT “The stories make timely nods to current issues such as opioid addiction but also offer a more rewarding sense of character development.” – New York Post Dec 31, 2019 Full Review Mad About You: Season 1 (2019) 42% 1.5/4 EDIT “This may go down as one of the most forgettable "returns" of the year.” – New York Post Nov 18, 2019 Full Review The Crown: Season 3 (2019) 90% 3/4 EDIT “What The Crown effortlessly does do is show how one circumspect yet indomitable woman helped the British monarchy survive into the present day.” – New York Post Nov 12, 2019 Full Review Dickinson: Season 1 (2019) 77% EDIT “If they're so afraid contemporary audiences won't watch a show where the characters are dressed in period-era costumes and living without smartphones, why bother creating a show about someone they have probably never read?” – New York Post Nov 6, 2019 Full Review See: Season 1 (2019) 44% EDIT “With obvious references to savior stories such as births of Christ and Moses, See is just strange and striking enough to persuade the slumming fantasy fan to go along for the ride.” – New York Post Nov 6, 2019 Full Review The Morning Show: Season 1 (2019) 62% EDIT “A racially tone-deaf dive into the shark tank of television news, it trades too heavily on our knowledge of the Matt Lauer scandal at the expense of character development and commits some egregious plotting errors at the expense of plausibility.” – New York Post Oct 30, 2019 Full Review Emmys: Season 66 (2014) 38% EDIT “There are so many stultifyingly awful moments to choose from, this was one of the worst awards shows ever. Ever.” – New York Post Sep 13, 2019 Full Review Emmys: Season 67 (2015) 94% EDIT “All in all, [Andy Samberg] was a big improvement over last year's host” – New York Post Sep 12, 2019 Full Review Carnival Row: Season 1 (2019) 56% 2/4 EDIT “As it lurches from crime story to sci-fi/fantasy, star-crossed romance to politically relevant social drama, Carnival Row has a hard time developing its strengths.” – New York Post Aug 23, 2019 Full Review Mindhunter: Season 2 (2019) 99% 3/4 EDIT “While the series benefits from giving everyone more to do, the pacing could be quicker.” – New York Post Aug 19, 2019 Full Review Why Women Kill: Season 1 (2019) 68% 3/4 EDIT “Marc Cherry delivers his best series since the long-running hit Desperate Housewives. Bitingly funny, it echoes the best satiric elements of the ABC hit without the baggage of having too many characters with subplots that fall all over themselves.” – New York Post Aug 10, 2019 Full Review Sunnyside: Season 1 (2019) 36% EDIT “With his easy charm, smart script and diverse cast, [Kal] Penn may help the network deliver something that's been eluding it -- a comedy that's timely and winning.” – New York Post Jul 8, 2019 Full Review Euphoria: Season 1 (2019) 80% EDIT “In Euphoria's cynically nihilistic vision, today's teens have been warped by technology into soulless, self-medicating androids who use each other for cheap thrills! What will happen to them? OMG.” – New York Post Jun 17, 2019 Full Review
